Halloween is one of if not THE days for self-expression. A day, when we can be whoever we want.
This too is true for your car.
Now, prior to decorating your vehicle, you need to decide whether it will be mobile or stationary, as this may alter how you decorate your car for Halloween.
If you are going to have your vehicle mobile then all decorations must be road safe.
If your vehicle is going to be sitting in your driveway then you can go all out.
Once that is decided, you can start thinking about your theme.
Here are 8 Trick-Or-Tips On Decorating Your Car For Halloween:
Ideas for mobile car decorations for Halloween:
First, ensure all decorations are road safe and do not obstruct your driving or interfere with the driving of others.
1. Use car decals that are spooky and easy to find online (like Amazon), to make your car's headlights look like they are oozing slime or was attacked by a zombie.
2. Cut out vampire teeth using styrofoam and add it to your grille.
3. Use ketchup to make your car look bloody, or purchase red face paint.
Ideas for stationary car decorations for Halloween:
1. Lucille anyone? Use a baseball bat and cut styrofoam to make barbwire and spray paint it to look like the real deal and have it secured to the hood of your vehicle.
Then, using a black bristol board make cut-outs of zombies for your theme to be after the TV Show, The Walking Dead.
2. Turn your vehicle into a spooky pumpkin patch of jack-o-lanterns. This too can be a fun time with the kids or if you have an artist at home.
Get a bunch of pumpkins of all shapes and sizes and carve them with various designs. Then purchase flameless candles and add one to each.
Then decorate the roof of your vehicle with your jack-o-lantern display!
3. Make a graveyard using styrofoam and some grey spray paint, add names with permanent markers and cover your vehicle in tombstones.
4. If you do not want to go the scary route for young kids, think of popular kid movies or turn your car into a dinosaur by adding a head in the grille, some spikes on the roof and a tail in the back.
5. If you want to go simple, add some orange and white lights to your vehicle.
I hope these trick-o-tips will help spook...err...I mean spark some creativity when it comes to incorporating your car in this year's trunk-o-treat, for work, or for the night. Have a fun and safe Halloween!
